Fujitsu PRIMERGY RX200 S6 with VMware ESX v4.1 / vCenter 4.1 VMmarks published.
Score of 6.81 at 7 tiles.
The news come from VMware Website where the results were published. I can tell that the RX 200 S6 has made some enormous progress since the previous models and it became the most sold model for vSphere clusters. I can tell since I'm deploying those servers at the customer's sites and also we're running those internally at Omicrone, where I work.
Together with the RX200 S6 there was a Fujitsu DX80 array model with FC connectivity. You can find the detailed pdf document here.

2 socket rack server, the PRIMERGY RX300 S6 holds the TPC-E benchmark world record for best price/performance in online transactional database processing (OLTP).
Fujitsu announced that its PRIMERGY RX200 S6 rack server holds pole position in VMware’s new VMmark V2.0 industry benchmark, which is now extended to measure servers on both performance and scalability for applications running in virtualized environments in a multi-host virtual environment. In a separate benchmark, PRIMERGY RX rack servers have retained all three top slots in TPC-E price-performance tests for more than two months, making Fujitsu the first vendor to sustain triple top results in two and a half years.
Such strong benchmark results provide independent validation that Fujitsu PRIMERGY RX series rack servers deliver industry-leading performance in the business-critical areas of databases, virtualization and enterprise resource planning. Customers looking for investment protection and faster payback can rely on best-in-class performance results that validate the advantages of choosing Fujitsu servers.
